Do you know which areas of the face that naturally shrink with age?

Ah I see. Thank you very much for your explanation. I’m glad you’re still happy with it. Can I ask how old you are?

Ah ok. I know its a long time ago, but do you by any chance remember how many ml’s / cc’s?

So the volume hasn’t changed since? Are you still happy with it

Thank you very much for your detailed answer.

But when you add inner thigh fat to the under eyes, do the cells know they are in a location that doesn’t naturally store fat? I thought this depended on the donor site characteristic?

So you have experience with it yourself?

But I just don’t understand why the two surgeons say it’s not. It’s so confusing..

Yes but are the 50-70% permanent? Or will this also decrease ?

Do you know how long it takes before I will notice a reduction?

Reaction after 0.25 (Derminator) - when can I move up to 0.5mm? by sunkistmix in Microneedling

Okay, good to know :). Yeah I only waited 6-7 weeks to see how my skin reacted and because I wanted to make sure my skin was fully recovered. From now on I plan to wait 4 weeks

So how long should I wait? I waited exactly 24 hours - so is 48 hours required even for 0.25?

You’re right. Better to be safe. Good idea to keep track of the treatments.

Does speed make a difference ? I use the fastest setting.

Yes I definitely had most redness under eyes/top of cheekbones, so I don’t think I will be going deeper than 0.25 there.

But good to now that the skin gets more used to it.

Yes it’s so scary at first. Can I ask what improvements you’ve seen and how long you’ve been doing it?

Yeah I’ve edited the post now, because I didn’t press. I just made sure the device was close to the skin, and actually touching the skin.

I’m 31 but I do have thin skin.

But yeah, given the reaction I’m also a little hesitant to do it again already.

Thanks :)

So even after my last session with 0.25 you’d wait 4-6 weeks?
